I hope this will help me advance my career and increase my pay, cause all this is out of my pocket. The only reason I picked CS is because I want to have programming skill in my arsenal to pair with hardware skill. I'm thinking this is a lost cost because there's nothing I learn in class that I actually use. All the programming that I am actually using is self taught. But I guess Master's in CS will only open door for me when applying for new jobs. I have a bachelor in Electronics and just started working on my master’s in computer science.
